All staff are University qualified in their professional expertise with many holding postgraduate qualifications. The Director of Jigsaw holds a Master of Education (Autism) is a parent with a daughter with autism and intellectual disability, who is a specialist Autism Spectrum Disorders teacher/practitioner. Jigsaw Autism Services is a specialist Autism specific early intervention service and has established a specialist Autism Learning and Resource Centre that reflects the outcomes based on the 2011 review of the research to identify the most effective models of practice in early intervention of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (Prior, Roberts, Williams & Sutherland). Using research evidence based proven autism interventions derived from Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and supported with developmental play based learning to address the core challenges of autism, an individualised treatment plan is implemented. Parents/carers play a pivotal role in sessions. Parents are viewed as co-therapists where they are taught strategies and teaching/learning techniques which they can implement as part of their everyday experiences. Therapy is viewed as a natural way to interact and connect with their child through a highly supportive learning environment. Sessions are conducted in Jigsaw's fully equipped learning centre which reflects best practice in early intervention autism specific treatment.

Hello Rainbow is a multi disciplinary service offering speech and occupational therapy in an early intervention environment for children. Hello Rainbow offers a mobile service, enabling therapy in your home. Most children are comfortable and receptive in their home environment. This often means that they’re in a great frame of mind to bond with our therapists and engage in meaningful play and communication. We are a neuro-affirming practice. This means that we strongly believe that all children view and communicate with the world around them differently. These differences are not deficits, or something that needs to be fixed. Your child is a unique and wonderful little person. Our passionate therapists work with your child’s strengths, interests and abilities to build their confidence and help them reach their goals. We believe that a holistic approach to early intervention brings the best outcomes. We work collaboratively with early childhood specialists, both in house and externally. Our therapists are experienced, dedicated and work under a therapy first framework.
